Na uzorku od 2.366 dece, od 10-12 godina, u južnoindijskoj četvrti distrihta Keral, od ukupne prevalencije malokluzija 83,3 %, dijastema medijana je zastupljena u rekordno niskom procentu od tek 0,76% 16 . Glavni klinički doprinos ovog ispitivanja je što su rezultati dobijeni posle prepubertetskog skoka rasta svih ispitanika, kad je formirana stalna denticija i njene okluzalne karakteristike, zahvaljujući kojima se objašnjavaju saglasnost, kontradiktornosti, savremene tendencije i opšteprihvaćene dogme o dijastemi medijani. Zaključak Ovo epidemiološko ispitivanje, na tutinsko-rožajskom srednjoškolskom uzorku, pruža sledeće dokaze: u multikauzalnoj etiologiji dijasteme medijane dominira nasleđe (35,07 %), dijastema medijana u kompletnom uzorku zastupljena 14.00 %, češća je kod ispitanika muškog.
